Hey ladies,

Sorry to drag up an old thread, but I need some advice!

I'm thinking of buying the 3 piece set from lovinmybags (moisteriser, cleanser and protectant), and I just wondered what do you do first? Do you cleanse, protect and then moisterise? Or do you cleanse, moisterise, protect? What gets the best result for a vintage bag?

I bought the same trio of products. I spent more time with cleaning on my lambskin and calfskin, but did use them on my caviar as well. It is a process or a labor of love (i.e., IMHO take your time). It took me several days as I had many bags to do and waited to do them during the same time period.

For my vintage bags (i.e., bags 15, 20, 25, and almost 30 years old) I used the cleaner first, wait at least 24 to determine the condition of the bag (you may need the repeat the process until you acheive your desired result--as stated on the miracle botannical cleaner bottle/jar). Secondly, I use the moisturizer and wait at least 24 hours. Lastly, I use the miracle botannical shield/protectorant. There are instructions on the website. HTH. Sorry I have no before and after pics...There are some on the website though.

Meltonian has a cleaner, conditioner and water repellent all in one lotion. I've spent two days applying this stuff on my Chanel's and Bbag's~hardworking, wonderful concoction is all I can say. My bags look sparkly fresh, without the ugly residue to complicate things. I'm very, very pleased with this particular style of meltonian!

if the shoe repair hadn't of been able to get rid of the green stain on my white caviar jumbo, i would no longer be on this forum 'cause would be an incoherent shell of a woman in The Happy Farms Home for Major Chanel Bag Disappointment

:lolots:me too...me too:lolots:

i have a beige claire jumbo in caviar and yet to break her out to the public and i am really concern with its shade though i love it to bits!!! i want a jumbo for casual use / frequent usage but again i really feel i should do something!!!

ok, in my mind, i think i need a PROTECTION coat as well as a CLEANSER for emergency but after reading.....googling....searching..... i am so confuse and dont know what should i use or what should i do? i really appreciate if you girls can imput some really fool proof method / products for your light shade chanel.....

Product used:
Purpose:
Instructions:
Procedure: ( if more than 1 product being used)
Outcome / result:

i really want something that dont change the look of my flaps..... example, turning a standard caviar super shiny!!!!! changing the color of my flaps.... i just want it to stay as it is but better in terms of protection! would greatly appreciate your input!!!

Thanks Susie! Do you happen to know what the seller means by "pebbled leather"? I am concerned about using it on my Cerf, but feel good now about using it on Caviar.

Any insight is greatly appreciated :flowers:

I think if your leather is napped, brushed or very porous then you don't use this stuff on that leather. Also my cobbler told me to use my fingertips to message the lotion into the material IOW don't apply with a cloth. The cloth will absorb the lotion and you will only waste it.

Remember I've used this on my Ultimate Soft, distress lambskin and Chevre leather bags without any complications or alterations in color. After 24 hours the leather smell came back too :)

Meltonian cleaner/conditioner. It waterproofs as well, which for caviar is not necessary but a plus. I just use it to wipe down if it gets dirty marks. It works great for my Hermes bags as well.

I have a vintage Chanel (from the 80's I believe. It's in pretty good shape and I want to give it a little spa treatment. Is there any way I could do this at home without having to send it off ?

Thanks in advance for your advice. :smile1:

I saw 2 days ago at local Saks, the SA used cadillac to take out the scratches on m/l lambskin in front of me. It looks new again. She said it is only for black.

for patent leather, she was spray index on the glass, and used the soft cloth to pick that liquid and wiped the patent leather purse.
